Jackdaw (Viking)

Jackdaw was a Danish Viking who served as Brida's lieutenant during the late 9th century. In 902, Brida sent Jackdaw to warn Uhtred of Bebbanburg about the Danish army's approach towards Bedanford, as well as identifying Aethelwold Aetheling as the murderer of Ragnar Ragnarsson. Uhtred did not allow Jackdaw to return to the Danes, taking him prisoner before the start of the Battle of the Holme.
